Staff: draft zoning text will go to planning commission then council; map amendments needed for rezoning
Summary
Rose said the process will move from public feedback to drafting zoning text; text amendments will begin at planning commission public hearings and later go to the council. She emphasized that adopting text does not automatically rezone properties; a separate map amendment and public hearing is required to place a property in a new district.
Rose described the procedural pathway for the zoning work: staff will use public feedback to draft the text and then begin the formal text-amendment process. "So it would start with planning commission public hearings, make its way to council in public hearings," she said, and noted that separate zoning map amendments would be required to change a property's actual zoning designation on the ground.
In response to a question about timing for items on a recent plan and zoning agenda, Rose said that required public hearings would be scheduled for Sept. 1 because public notice must be provided. She underscored that text adoption alone does not immediately rezone properties without the separate map amendment/public-hearing step.
